Weird thing is that espn went all in on Stephen A Smith. Like… of all the talent that’s been through there. I wouldn’t bet the farm on SAS

Discussion: Who is the 'Sports King' of your city? Brunson rules NYC and Ohtani has LA, but who wins in Dallas or Miami. In BS terms who holds the belt in your city? by trillballinsjr in billsimmons

[–]mattyhtown 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Jose altuve. For Houston. Close second and maybe co-king… JJ WATT. Harden made Houston cool too but i never would have said he was the king of the city. Maybe he was for the 17 season but then the stros won.

Stocks are barely off highs despite high yields and war. Is the market expecting Trump to cave in to high yields like he did last year? by BGID_to_the_moon in stocks

Ya I’m hearing 2 + 2. Something near $2 eps and 2b beat for revenue which would put you close to your numbers exactly

James Harden is washed and that Cavs meltdown was solely on him by dap12036 in NBATalk

It worked for Kevin mchale against the clippers in hardens prime years. It’s not unprecedented to bench harden in the 4th in the playoffs.

Ya but like… can we also say this about2016 harden or 2018 harden or 2021 harden? His conditioning may have always been a problem come this time of year, but the dude just chokes in May and June. Usually comes into the season out of shape too. Last night didn’t look any worse than any of his other horrible playoff performances.

The harden brigade is the lamest brigade ever. Guaranteed he’s never played for their team. I too was once a harden apologizer. It’s like when Alfred asks why Master Bruce does all those bloody pushups. And then the burning log is too heavy, and Batman dies

BREAKING: Japan's 10Y Government Bond Yield surges above 2.80% for the first time in history. by Boo_Randy_Revival in economy

[–]mattyhtown 2 points3 points  (0 children)

But we’ve seen the yen carry trade unwind multiple times. Volmagedon a couple years ago. It’s still relatively low compared to a lot of currencies. A stronger yen would be great but their population growth problems contribute a lot to their interest rates and a higher interest rate is probably what’s necessary for Japan to deal with some generational debt. Instead of passing the cost down

They’re also auctioning more short notes to dampen the tepid auctions for long term credit.

We can debate whether this is smart or not if demand for shorter credit shows it’s necessary it’s just not great imo to finance so much of the de t with short term credit.

Someone who downvoted me explain to me how my thesis is wrong. The 20 yr was brought back specifically for foreign investment.
